That's nothing. I've got 441 tasks running on my linux install by just existing

it's all weird shit like kworker, watchdog, cpuhp, and scsi repeated a hundred times

I have a dozen of those tops, some of which are software I installed. That is not the 'current state of windows'. That is the current state of your machine.

how do you pronounce svchost?

I like "siv-chost"

ess vee cee - host

>>62452885
But doesn't it list the service there.
Also the services tab doesn't list the PID of the service.

>>62453148
service host.

>>62453148
svhost

go to VIew - Select Columns and enable "Command Line" or something like that, it will show what it actually is
